"Of course I hope that all my friends will be free again, but this is definitely an extravagant hope.

Ms Mo The eldest among us, has been involved in sports for many years, has devoted enough youth and sweat, and could have enjoyed a good retirement life, but today is in jail because of the commitment to sports. The situation in the prison of this predecessor really makes me think about it. I hope she is well and overcomes difficulties."

Tomorrow is Mother’s Day. When he mentioned his mother, he felt very touched between the lines. He bluntly said that his mother allowed him to choose the path of life freely since he was a child. "In junior high school, he grew up consciously and was free. Every day he played chess, basketball, and playing. Opportunity means not having the courage to know girls, self-reliant on being clever, and finally learning to regress in the third grade............ My mother didn’t blame me, but only encouraged me to work hard. I also knew that I could not wander again and started to work hard, and finally passed the 5th grade exam On the seven days of the college entrance examination, I got good results...By the time I was admitted to the ICAC and completed the induction training, my parents came to the ICAC headquarters to attend the graduation ceremony. My mother felt proud and comforted. Only four years later, I told her that I decided to return to democracy. The party, my mother just asked: "Have you considered it clearly?", and never tried to stop it."

I can cook for my parents again, and the whole family will have dinner together and enjoy the joy of family. It is inevitable that I will feel sad."

Lin Zhuoting also recalled that when her mother came to visit, she could only close her eyes and look up to the sky when she heard her encouragement, hoping that her mother would not see her tears. "In the first week in Stanley Prison, my mother told me when she came to visit, "Take care in prison, the whole family will support you, and be proud of you" Hearing this, I can't help myself. I close my eyes and look up to the sky. I hope tears will flow in my heart. Don't let my mother see me crying, and make her sad. , Sad." He bluntly said that he would pray for his parents every night in prison, hoping to cook for them again after he was released from prison.
